It has just occurred to me that i'm sure we- the great british public- are having the wool pulled over our eyes yet again.
If the supermarket chains can suddenly, in the face of competition, reduce prices- this includes the cheaper supermarkets who have the leading edge at the moment, then how come we have been told that it is world prices at the production end that has been causing the rapid increases in our shopping baskets.
If i am right, shops are not allowed to sell things at a loss. This means that they are still making money at these reduced prices.
We must be complete mugs.
I say keep shopping at aldi and lidl, and watch the giants slash their prices further. Then split your shopping between them all to keep prices down.
Surely we should also do this with petrol companies, and energy suppliers to force them down too.
Come on people, start fighting against this rip off at long last.
If we don't do it no one will. Least of all this lilly livered government we have in place.
